*Welcome to the webpage of the **VIII Biennial Conference of the
International Academy for Intercultural Research*

The 8th Biennial Conference of the International Academy for Intercultural
Research (IAIR) brings together scholars and practitioners from a variety
of disciplines in the field of intercultural relations.

This biennial conference of the Academy focuses on pushing the boundaries
of intercultural research. Persistent problems related to intercultural
concerns continue to plague our planet – from violent conflict, clashes
over immigration, international terror, and inequities across institutions.
This is compounded by a global economic crisis that requires intercultural
cooperation.  The immediate objective of this Conference is to provide an
international forum for participants to consider and question information
through meaningful dialogues, so in turn they may further contribute to the
positive development of their own scholarship as well as the state of our
world. Whether we are conducting research or applying it, we need to
consider whether we are asking the types of critical questions that are
necessary. Are we pushing the boundaries of our fields, or staying bounded
by existing frameworks of knowledge, methodology, or applications? As an
interdisciplinary body, we have the ability to use the knowledge and skills
from each of our respective disciplines to examine and confront issues at
hand.
